I like the feeling of this track alot. A different take on the theme. I enloy the blending of 8bit sounds with more modern soundscapes.

Love the combination of the smooth atmosphere with the gritty 8bit instrumentation. Nice work!

Interesting atmosphere, and the distorted sounds add the kinda creepy feeling. Maybe lacks a bit of melodic elements for my taste, but that's just me ! Good job anyway :D

I thinks it fit the underground theme well but I find it too dreamy and ethereal for a game like mario, especially for a pretty fast paced 2d platformer.

Nice mood, dark and mysterious, with a solid choice of percussions and pads. Great take on the theme, good job!

This sounds like it would fit well in an slower paced, darker, more story focused Mario game. I love the atmosphere you’ve built up using 8bit sounds, great tension and resolution with an upbeat sound too!

loved the middle bit, i feel like that really captured the optimism of the mario games while still maintaining a darker underground theme.

The opening for this piece is so good. The pad and main pattern work great together

Fantastic atmospheric feeling of tension but at the same time positive emotion. Digging those background drone noises and the sound design all around in this. Great work!

Pretty unique, liked the vibe mixing some classic 8bit sounds with modern sound.
